This movie was ASS. The worst in the Disney pantheon. The reason for the conflict was stupid. What they need to make the movie better would have been an outsider of the family to help even things out. The only reason this movie has GENERALLY positive reviews, is because of three things: Disney’s long established credibility, animation, and CATCHY music (even so, the music was annoying).
I really appreciated how there was no twist villain, with the closest thing to an antagonist being Abeula. But even then, she's revealed to have understandable motives behind her actions.
This movie is perfect , It doesn't only focus on Mirabel it focuses on the whole family. The best part is that there is no villain or a love interest for Mirabel. It goes into emotional topics , Amazing songs , Voice acting on point , but most of all the animation is beautiful.
I agree. my only regret it that I didn't see this movie in the theaters with a crowd And last summer I have fallen in love with the pixar movie Luca and have watched it more time than any other Pixar movie in less than 6 months. Wally and inside out which has been my favorite picture movies since they first came out had been dethroned. Covid-19 problems aside I think 2021 has been really good for Disney animated films one from Disney animation studio themselves and the other from Pixar
Personally? I think Encanto deserves a series or sequel. There’s a lot of interesting dilemmas that they could’ve explored with the rest of the Madrigals. Expand on Luisa’s pressure and Isabela’s perfection. What if Camilo had an identity crisis? What if Pepa admitted she was feeling crazy stressed from having to constantly maintain her emotions? Dolores feeling like no one ever listens to her when she has to listen to everyone else? The movie, for what it was, was great. Touched on themes that were super relatable and its songs grew on me. But I think we need a little more.
I agree, I feel like with a series we will be able to further expand with the other madrigals and see how things are now now that their family is whole again
This. Maybe this time opening to the outside world and dealing with outsiders since the mountain leading to the river is now open? It would be interesting to see how their powers will be used in times of battle. 😅
Or they can just leave it how it is. With the exception of star wars every time there's a sequel or any other off shoot it degrades the value. I think we need to learn how to be satisfied with a great movie and leave it at.
@@ilovelamp521 That’s not always true. Sequels aren’t always as great as the original but they can enhance the characters and stories. Not every movie needs a sequel, that’s true. But some movies do benefit from one.
Has anybody realized that Pepa's side of the family wears warm tones and Julieta's side of the family cool tones and Abuela Alma and Bruno wear warm and cool tones mixed
I’m autistic and as I was leaving the theater I couldn’t believe how perfect an analogy it was for a neurodiverse person growing up in a neurotypical family! I think it was how everyone in her family felt compelled to tell Mirabel how ‘special’ she was, yet they never took her contributions to the family seriously. Even though she was working super hard to help get the casita ready for Antonio’s party everyone was telling her to stay out of the way and let the more ‘capable’ members of the family handle things. Best of all her superpower ends up being her empathy. I love this because contrary to outdated stereotypes many autistic people have a type of extreme empathy. We often experience the suffering of others so strongly that just being around heightened emotional situations (or even watching it on TV) can be unbearably painful. This extreme empathy is by far the most difficult part of being on the spectrum for me personally. So seeing it portrayed as a literal superpower was a big deal. (Ok. I cried.)
I am like both NT and ND...as in I was forced to be the scapegoat who had to force myself to forgive my friendgroups in order to survive the DSM4 'yellow' 'fever' era...like I have numb logic and angry toxic Jinx side
"Why is Encanto Disney's Best Movie in Years?" Two things. 1) Lin-Manuel Miranda is fucking awesome at what he does. 2) It's not another shitty live-action remake of a successful animated movie.
Yes! I hope they give him more opportunities to create more hits! Moana and Encanto are hopefully the beginning. I hope he becomes like Alan Menken and they allow Lin to just creatively do more and more because they see what an asset he is!
As a Colombian I feel very real this film, and I find more things of reality than fantasy, because its background is based on the reality of many Colombian families who have had to flee their villages, and who have separated and years later reunite, and they find that love and appreciation that despite being separated they always longed for.
I get so emotionally stirred up during the part of "All of You" where Mirabel takes her walk to Casita's door as the family sings. Oh my gosh. The way I love this movie is straight up ridiculous.
That scene is a parallel with the scene in waiting on a miracle when we see the one thing Mirabel wants more than anything else is for her family to support her as we see her dance around the static versions of them with overjoyed expressions cheering her on. That ending scene is very similar in that they are all gathered around her showing their admiration and support
It also bookends nicely with Antonio's ceremony at the beginning of the film. At the beginning of the film, Antonio insists on Mirabel walking him to his door because he is nervous. At the end, Antonio walks Mirabel to the doors of the Casita.
As a Brooklyn born Latino, who is bilingual in English/Spanish - I actually love that both theaters and streaming services NOW make these Latino theme animation movies available to watch in both English/Spanish for our children, grandchildren and the whole Family. As Latinos, we are aware that each group is extremely PROUD of their own unique history, food, accent & customs - but when it comes to Family values & heritage we are all quite similar. We didn’t have Latino theme animation movies, when I was growing up - so 1) I love that we can experience the movie as a family 2) we can educate non-Latinos about the various PROUD cultures that makeup the diverse Latino Community in & outside of the USA 👏
@@heartroll8719 - Here is some TRIVIA: American movies have been dubbed into other foreign languages, since the beginning of cinema. As such, the standard Spaniard Castellano accent is what was often used. However, today the industry is sensitive to using the proper Spanish accent associated with the group being represented in the film, so: - “Encanto” will be dubbed with a Colombian Spanish accent - “Coco” will be dubbed with a Mexican Spanish accent. The Soundtrack songs are also translated You can also wait to see when the movie is release for rental or purchase, to see if it’s available in your prefer language of Chinese. I only purchase movies that are also dubbed in Spanish so I can enjoy the experience with my friends & family that are only Spanish speakers. I watched “In the Heights” on HBOMAX the first time in English and the 2nd time in Spanish. It was great on both viewings. NETFLIX is great at offering Foreign movies in multiple languages like the popular “Squid Game” is available in Audio dubbed: German, English, Spanish, French, Korean Subtitles are available in: Chinese, English, Korean I watch a lot of Foreign Language films and I don’t mind reading subtitles at the theater. However, if I’m at home and the Foreign Film is not available in English, I will select the Spanish, French, Italian or Portuguese dubbed version with English Subtitles. I’ve been translating Spanish, French, Italian and Portuguese documents into English for over 30+ years and have visited for work many of these countries, especially the Spanish speaking ones and after a 4 month assignment, of course, I immediately adapt to their accent, so I do not standout.
You love the word "Latino" and ask yourself why. It is a word that has no meaning to the people who's races are from North Central and South America. What are you? I am American, my family is Mexican. None of us call ourselves "Latino" because it has zero value, no meaning, and was created by "white" people to categorize indigenous people.
I’ve read the article on how Mirabel’s struggles relates to people on the autism spectrum & speaking as an ASD person, I’ve never noticed that until I read the article & started putting two & two together😄💙
Yes! As an autistic person, the scene where Mirabel's like "I'll never be good enough for you" was hard to watch. And the whole "waiting for a miracle" number too. I'd say "Surface Pressure" is a pretty relatable song as well. I often feel in my workplace that, as a disabled person being accommodated, I have to "prove" that I deserve my place and I have to work even harder than most people to be accepted.
I’m also autistic. As I was leaving the theater I couldn’t believe how perfect an analogy it was for a neurodiverse person growing up in a neurotypical family! I think it was how everyone in her family felt compelled to tell Mirabel how ‘special’ she was, yet they never took her contributions to the family seriously.

@Sebby I can relate to Bruno that way because of his awkwardness and my autism. The line that broke my heart during the movie “Yeah, my gift wasn’t helping the family but I love my family.”
One little detail that I liked was that Isabella, the one who is considered the most beautiful, has the darkest skin tone amongst the females. The pretty ones in fairy tales are usually blond and white and Isabella is fresh change.
can we stop with this twilight zone bs? first, many "Disney" princesses aren't from Disney whatsoever and are old tales from Europe, kinda hard having them anything different than European looking princesses second, as if there was no Pocahontas, Frog, Moana, Yasmin, Mulan and the list goes on just stop with this notion that it's something so outta this world because it just isn't I support original stories like encanto a 100%, it is even kinda my new favorite Disney movie but we have to stop as if those stories aren't told,if you would care to look you would find an abundance
My sons and I love this movie so much! My oldest is 8 and is autistic. He will not stop playing this movie. I just love seeing how much joy it brings him. It melts my heart. We sing “We Don’t Talk About Bruno” all together as a family every single time and still haven’t grown tired of it. Such a beautifully layered story with great characters, gorgeous animation and fun bops! A favorite hands down. ❤️✨
I have an almost 8 year old mostly nonverbal autistic son (he can only say a few words and has problems with pronunciation) and he loves this movie even more than my 5 year old daughter loves it. He tries to sing all the songs and mimics Luisas dance and asks to watch the music videos on TH-cam (surface pressure is his favorite song)
It is so amazing Disney is my special interest and I’ve had encanto on repeat too Im so glad you enjoy his enjoyment it’s amazing seeing parents support their kids interests
@@Norumi0chan Aww, that is so cute that he mimics her dancing! Isn’t the best feeling when you see your child so happy? There really is something so special about Encanto. 💕✨
My favorite things about Encanto: 1. There is a more diverse range of bodies; especially for the female characters. Luisa and Mirabel aren't the typical skinny Disney princess figure which I really appreciate. 2. There isn't a typical villain; though Abuela is the main protagonist, the solution to the conflict comes when we come to understand her and why she acted the way she did. We have sympathy for her and can relate to her, which is a powerful message. 3. All the characters are flawed, which is not very common for Disney movies of the past, but really, really adds to the quality and realism of the story. Honestly this movie beats Frozen for me which is a big deal!
Lion king is my favorite ever, im an old school and not a fan of modern disney movies , but this movie with amazing animation, beautiful music, great and relatable characters, dance scenes, family values, humor… is my favorite disney movie in years. Not to mention it made me wanna learn spanish and visit Colombia ❤️
It absolutely amazes that a movie can resonate with so many people and can be seen in so many positive prospectives. This is one of those movies in a very long time where I was having fun every step of the way. Props to Disney and the film makers.
For me Encanto is a story about family problems without any villain. It's related to real life, the pressure as older sibling, being hope for family, and a lot hardships among family members. Encanto apparantly conclude almost all issues without any complicated storyline. + Colombian cultures make it more colourful and I like it 💖 They deserve as Movie of the Year 💖💖💖
Encanto is by far one of my favourite Disney films. It doesn’t follow traditional trends and patterns. There was no plot twist villian, which makes a difference in my opinion. They initially make it out to be Bruno, I personally got a lot of Scar (from the Lion King) vibes, but we find out he’s got a heart of gold and was trying to protect Mirabel and the family despite him being rejected. I wouldn’t say Abuela is a villain, more an antagonist as she is (sort of) against Mirabel throughout much of the film. Her actions are understandable, and there isn’t necessarily any malice intended towards Mirabel. She just wants the best for her family who she cares about massively, as well as wanting to give back to the community but didn’t realise until the end of the film that she was expecting too much of her family, apologised to Mirabel for letting her down, and said she would change her ways. This film is perfect in so many ways. It’s set in a beautiful location, it’s colourful and the music is the best since Moana. Most importantly, it teaches us that no matter what, your family will always be there
I don't consider it Disney's best. I consider it one of the best movies ever made. I knew from the start that I was either going to LOVE or HATE this.. I am from the English-speaking Caribbean and spent 6 weeks in Colombia in uni for Spanish and I consider Colombia home. I was already in love with Carlos Vives and Sebastian Yatra. Colombia mi Encanto makes me want to get on a plane or at least pull out the aguardiente. Dos oruguitas though... I have seen the movie 11 times and that song pulled my soul apart and leaves me bawling every single time. As for representation, I expected my Colombian side to identify, but I was amazed to find a bunch of other little non-mainstream things that I share with the characters as an Afro-Caribeña. Like when Mirabel points at Antonio's present with her mouth or when Camilo does the finger-click in Antonio's room. These are everyday things for me and I don't think I have ever seen them on screen outside of my culture. Made me think that the Caribbean and Latin America are closer than we think. I also really love that Disney decided to keep Dos Oruguitas and Colombia mi Encanto in Spanish. English-speakers are notoriously unreceptive to other languages. So I am glad the choice paid off and everyone loves the song and it is already nominated for an award. I am glad they went for an all Latinx cast for the English too, and all Colombian for the Spanish. (Although that might be backlash from Raya.) Itfeels autentic to have some of the characters have a little accent. I love the decision not to dub in Castilian Spanish. For once, we get to tell our own story on the world's biggest stage. All that said, I think that what makes Encanto great overall is how open it is to multiple interpretations. Frozen changed the game, but we were told (and it was obvious) that love was the answer. Encanto wrapped up two months ago and we are still all in different campa about whether Mirabel has a gift, whether she IS the Gift, where the miracle came from, whether Abuelo Pedro Is the House .... Encanto is a masterpiece.
I'm 59 years old and have been watching Disney Animated Features since I saw 'The Jungle Book' in theaters in 1967. Suffered through the hit and miss years of 'The Artistocats,' 'Robin Hood,' 'The Rescuers,' 'The Fox and the Hound,' 'The Black Cauldron,' 'The Great Mouse Detective' and 'Oliver & Co.,' before Disney had a major comeback with 'The Little Mermaid' moving them into the limelight again. 'Encanto' has become one of my all time favorites - potentially in my Top Three. It's so good. And I'm not sure why it's not getting more buzz, more viewers and better box office numbers.
I love how a gift can easily feel like a curse: Bruno: Can become paranoid about things he can see but not control Pepa: Must always suppress her emotions Antonio: When the animals have to eat each other and run away to survive, they end up dragging Antonio into their conflict. Antonio has to choose between predator and prey. Whoever he chooses, someone will hold a grudge.
Julieta is very busy with trying to keep the others happy and making all that food and handing it out. She is probably close to being as overworked as Luisa (or she would have been if she hadn't been nearly perfect).
I admit it, Encanto is my favorite Disney movie ever. I kinda watched each movie Disney released. Encanto brings something new, it touches so many true issues in life, it shows realistic conflicts, Disney wasn't afraid this time to open up. This movie is so mature, it's not only for the kids audience but especially to the grown up too. This movie would make you laugh, cry, identify and relate to one or more of the characters. The songs there are Beautiful and addictive as well, in short this movie is a masterpiece.
It’s settled, Encanto is definitely a mAster piece! Every element just came together perfectly to deliver a beautiful family message while exploring a different narrative and cultural context. Just impeccable!
I know that Encanto win the Oscar for The Best Animated film of 2022. I fell in love with Encanto at first sight! 💖 Hopefully, that will encourage Disney to officially make Mirabel the 13th princess. 👸🏽🌈🏡✨
I think it’s great because every character is either likeable or understandable. Also every character seems to have their own fan base even for the characters who don’t have that much screentime such as felix or camilo
As someone with glasses I love that mirabel has glasses. It's something I never paid much attention to before but it's def nice to see. I like how they didn't make it apart of her personality either, she's just a girl with glasses
As an autistic myself, I definitely relate to Mirabel. I also relate to Luisa and putting up that strong front when I should be more vulnerable. Also Delores and the insanity of too much audible input and how that can be overwhelming sometimes. It’s such a relatable movie with an amazing soundtrack! I can’t stop watching, can’t stop listening!!! Truly the best movie Disney has done in years and also Lin’s best soundtrack to date for sure!!!
What's really nice about Luisa is just because she has a gift of duper strength meant she didnt need to work out so disney couldve made the lazy choice to leave it, but they gave her large muscles aswell : )
On reflection, I think the gifts aren't random. Casita bestows gifts that amplify traits that the recipient already had. Antonio already loved animals before he gained the ability to understand them. Isabela was probably always goin to be a bit of a prima donna. Luisa was going to be a physically strong young woman anyway. Pepa is tempestuous. Julieta is nurturing. Camilo in indecisive. Dolores is in everyone's business. Bruno can see some of where things are going.
It's definitely in the top 10! I love that Disney is moving away from the good and evil trope. The songs are top tier and memorable, they have been stuck in my head for weeks. And the fact that they are one on charts prove that to be true. And pressure from family members is very relatable. I don't understand the hate, but not everything is for everybody I guess.
I'm glad Encanto has an abstract antagonist, it helps it deal with and explore its heavier themes more directly than telling your usual conflict between two people
The film's perfection stems from exploring imperfection. It is by no means a perfect film but it is this imperfection which captures the hearts of many.
I'm still struggling to say this, but Encanto may be the best Disney movie since the Lion King (not the 2019 crap. The real one) because it's so human and relatable with great songs and wonderful, 3-dimentional characters and chemistry
@@laurawithers5152 right? Tangled, Lilio & Stirch, Mulan Treasure Planet and more are great and classics but Lion King is definitely S+++ tier. If Encanto doesn't succeed it, it's definitely only 0.01% lower tier
@@rndmpinkiepie64 and also the sequel which is super underrated is amazing!!! Because what I really love about The Lion King movies is literally they are based off of Shakespeare the first one is based off of Hamlet and the second one is based off of Romeo and Juliet. And if I'm going to be honest I may be at a lonely table for one but I didn't fully understand all the hype that Frozen got but I 100% understand why Encato is getting all the hype plus lin-manuel Miranda is amazing
@@laurawithers5152 Frozen was good but movies like Tangled and Treasure Planet are way better and Lion King 2 was a good sequel, I totally agree (I also like Mulan 2) but the original was definitely a classic and a masterpiece and they translated the Shakespeare stories so well. It was amazing And after seeing Encanto, I want to see Miranda's other works. It didn't surprise me when I learned he did/helped on Moana's You're Welcome
Until this film came out, Moana was the last Disney film that I liked. The three films that came out during the last 5 years were either mediocre or terrible. But Encanto is such a special film, it’s rich in heart, emotion and creativity.
Are we talking only about Disney animated films under the umbrella of the parent company or Disney film in general, because Marvel, Star Wars, and Pixar's are fall under the category of Disney? Pixar has Coco and Soul, two of the best Disney/Pixar animated in the last five years. Marvel you know has infinity wars and endgame and Star Wars has Star Wars
304: Can Encanto be the first Disney movie to have siblings singing their own songs? Luvisa -Surface Pressure Isabella -What Else Can I Do Mirabel -Waiting On A Miracle
I think that Encanto is one of the best movies here. People really do connect to it and all of that, not just kids but adult’s too because no matter where you came from everyone has a story. That they share to their friends or family, or the same with the people who watches this magical movie with good songs!!!!
I'm literally obsessed with this film!! I watched it recently and since then, I haven't stopped watching every content related to it and listening to the music in TH-cam & Spotify! ✨
This movie was such a great movie and loved each character specialty Bruno since I can relate to him since I consider myself the family werido or black sheep of the family I really want to to see more of the family whether it's in a series or a movie We don't talk about bruno was such a bop
As a person who doesn't typically like Disney films (there are only 2 others that I enjoy), I can attest to the fact that this film is just...spectacular! The only thing that I dislike about the film is that Camilo and Dolores didn't have their own songs lol. As far as soundtracks go, this is my second favorite movie soundtrack of all time, which is saying a lot.
Okay, Bruno unintentionally mocking Let It Go when We Don't Talk About Bruno overtook Let It Go in the charts is freaking hilarious. And when anyone asks what Gift I'd want from the family, I'd say Camilo's shapeshifting gift.
Even if there’s no actual villain that hates the Madrigals or has a petty grudge against them Alma is somewhat of an antagonist but also a tragic anti hero since she went through a lot losing her husband and having to leave her village but instead of coming to terms with his passing she took out all of her grief on the rest of her family and turned into a perfectionist expecting them to use their powers to help their community while that was a good thing it ultimately burdened them all with frustration and pressure especially Luisa it only took her argument with Mirabel to convince her to change her ways.
A heroine with glasses and curly hair! And Luisa representing a strong woman! I love the movie. The representation of how big families in Hispanic countries that live together ❤️
There’s something so different about encanto that makes it so special, the concept is unique but yet it feels like something that can be a common idea too and i love how they execte the “villain”. People trying to tell you bruno’s the bad one, when it’s really Albula who is the “bad one”, but actually There being no actual villian, Albula really just in distress. And just how much each family member truly love each other. At first it looks like a normal relationship but then it slowly falls apart, be even while falling apart they still do love each other, just going through a phase. But in the end they make up.
As a Filipino who has a family struggle of having to have to do something special or having to get a great job it's been hard to communicate with my family especially when my grandparents actually expect alot from us going as far as casting out anyone who has a love interest before finishing collage or even as a fully grown adult dating someone they don't like/think is capable enough to be part of the family(said thing happened to my sister and at some point at my mom). There's also the fact that they are likely to interact with you if you have some sort of talent/focus like:playing a instrument,heavily dedicated to church,a top student. I even had to repeat a grade because I didn't get to the top 3 but- My point is Encanto has touched my heart where I just feel..seen in a way. I wish they could just let me do art and accept the change of life and slowly adjust away from the old fashioned way although I can't blame them either. My grandparents living long enough to experience war and had to deal with alot of financial problems in the past so now that they have a more middle class life they're really holding tight on it.
I've watched it 4 times so far and love it more each time. A couple of revelations as I watched this video: 1. The "tick tick tick" in Surface Pressure" could be a nod to the other film Lin-Manuel was working on during this time: Tick Tick Boom! 2. Wouldn't Mirabel's mom's power heal her eyesight?
I had never thought of Mirabel’s story being similar to that of someone with autism. I have autism and now that you mentioned it, I can see myself in Mirabel and her struggle to be accepted by her family and community. Especially her relationship with her grandmother. We never told my grandmother that I had be diagnosed with autism because we knew she wouldn’t have understood or accepted it (or me).
i love how disney always remind us that although we are reaching for the star, in the end all that matter is we are living the life we have and family is the most important thing in life.
This movie is in my opinion the best Disney Animation I have ever seen. Last time I was so obsessed with a Disney movie was the Lion King. But back then I was a kid and it was easy to get excited. Now I am 30 years old and getting this level of joy out of a movie is very rare.
I love this movie because I relate differently to a few characters. I've always felt pressured to be perfect, always like I have to carry everything, and feel like I don't fit in to either side of my family. Lately most my family members say I'm not Mexican enough because I don't like some Mexican things. They say I'm whitewashed because of my white fiance.
I love the movie! And although all except Mirabel have a special gift, I still think Mirabel is as special as everyone is around the world, no matter how many times people think they’re not.
So happy they proceeded to allow Luisa to have her body type. My son LOVES Luisa! And I know so many little kids of all genders that love her too. Showing such diverse characters is what makes this movie so amazing.
I remember watching it the first time in theaters and not liking it. I didn’t appreciate it until it came out on Disney + and now every time I watch it I cry. I’m considered the Bruno of my family and I relate to his character so much. My nephew and niece also have this movie on repeat and absolutely love Luisa. They try to prove to me how strong they are and it’s so heart warming. Such a great movie
The lines of isabella in we don't talk about bruno and the fact how much of a jerk she was for most of the movie really made me belive she whould be a twist villain. Imagin my suprise when it turned out she wasn't.
@@olvialee7221 Isabella’s solo is a foreshadowing. Everyone is singing about the worst fears Bruno confirmed - and she was singing out her worst fears being confirmed but had to still do it perfectly as demanded.
Encanto was perfection. If they ever make an Encanto 2, I’d be in line going to see it. I also loved that it focused on the whole Madrigal family, not just Mirabel or the siblings. The sister rivalry between Isabela and Mirabel also shows things that go on in everyday households. The songs are catchy, but the storyline isn’t perfect, although Encanto is amazing.
I saw this movie the other day on Disney+ and I LOVED it. And the song, ‘We Don’t Talk About Bruno’, I love singing it around the house because like other Disney songs, it’s SO catchy.😊
My first thought on watching Encanto was a snide ”wow, they made a movie specifically so they can sell the musical afterwards” Don’t get me wrong, I love Encanto now, but it took three rewatches to get past the gaudy music theatre surface
If I’m being honest Encanto has some of the greatest songs ever in a Disney movie. Maybe cause it’s more modern and uses more modern sounding instruments in order to sound better but the songs definitely surpass any other Disney songs I’ve heard.
This movie couldn’t have come out at a better time for me! I just spent 3 years of intense fighting with my family trying to address the hidden issues no one else wanted to see. After over 30 years of depression, suicide attempts, violent anxiety attacks, and misunderstood ADHD symptoms, I finally got my opportunity to put my foot down 3 years ago. I spent those 3 years fighting with my family who had been convinced that I was developmentally slow, incapable, spoiled and selfish. It took allowing my stepmom to come to my therapy sessions and informing her that none of that is correct and no one has actually listened to the truth; and then letting her (a more respected member of the family) mediate on my behalf to force my stubborn ass family to listen for once! All of that to get the chance to contribute to family dinner conversation on equal terms with my siblings! Equal! With light banter and teasing! That’s all I wanted! To actually be seen as a part of the family and not the family’s burden! So when I saw Encanto, I felt like I had just lived that! I could see myself in each of the characters. I’ve seen it multiple times now and I still can’t get enough!
Imo, Encanto def a new fresh of air amongst Disney’s movies! With the story centered around them and only them! And doesn’t need to like….adventure….and the Visual and Animation….magical!
I was literally just talking to my mom about how this is the first Disney/ Pixar musical I've liked in years! I wasn't a fan of Frozen except for a few songs and I wasn't even a huge fan of Moana tbh. for me its the music thats the main reason why I love it. there were some loose ends that they maybe will finish in a sequel but that was my only complaint. the animation was great, it could've been better like Toy Story 4, but it was still well done and the dancing was very realistic.
Anyone notice all the butterflies in mirabel’s attire? It signifies change in the family. The evolution from the old beliefs to the new. She’s developing into the new matriarchy.
maybe another reason encanto it's the best is because it's a second Hispanic movie first being coco which came out in 2017 after that no other Hispanic movie came
I love how every family member plays a role in solving the mystery of the breaking magic... and how relatable each character is in their own way. Bruno finally reuniting with his family made me want to sob like a small child. 🥺 The Madrigals are all just so... 😭🥰
His cracks weren't as apparent as the rest of the family, but he still played comforter to his mother when she was panicking, babysitter, family greeter, and fit the family's "entertainer" role. Camilo's family pressures weren't as obvious, but he still gave us pieces of the puzzle that this Perfect Family was breaking under the pressure. Plus he provided some great exposition (if incredibly inaccurate) about why we don't talk about Bruno. 😂
@@VidDuality That's why Disney needs to do a sequel or a series and go more in depth with each character. Everyone loves Camilo, Bruno and Dolores the most from what I keep seeing and yet they had so little screentime. Show us their rooms(not talking about Bruno since we've seen his). Show us their issues with dealing with their gifts. Have Camilo and Dolores have their own songs. Have Mirabel interact a whole lot more with her cousins(besides Antonio because he was the most interaction with her). Everyone is saying that her and Camilo should have been the closest since they are the same age even though he is older by a few months. So show us that Disney. That's what everyone is saying and I agree. There's so much that Disney can do to expand on this movie. So hopefully we will see something come out of it.
As the middle child I related to Luisa so much. As the one who moved back home to take care of my mother and has to work so hard to do everything Isabela and Luisa felt very close to me. I have such pressure to make everything look and seem under control.
Best movie I have seen in a long time! The perfect synchronized theme, lyrics, instruments and message makes this the best of the year. Each scene has incredible connection with the audience and makes you remember it forever!
To say I agree is a complete understatement. I’m 23 and I would list Encanto as one of my favorite Disney movies ever. It’s truly one of the best. The music, the aesthetic, the animation, the acting and the visuals are truly incredible.
I like that Bruno makes his first appearance during his song: he is creeping around on the upper walkway during Dolores' contribution. You can even see him rocking out to her lyrics.
Another reason why Encanto is Disney's best movie yet, Just watching this video and listening to the songs made me remember the scenes and because of that, made me cry 😭
RIGHT likee it legit took the entire world by STORM especially with their songs like surface pressure and we don’t talk about bruno. lin manuel miranda made these songs such BOPS likeee they slap so harddd. plus i think the amount of diversity from this story being placed in columbia and people fighting to have luisa have a more muscular body type plays a huge part in this movie being so big and good. not to mention this movie also has not only an audience that mainly consists of children but it also has TONS and TONS of teenagers and adults (mainly teens ofc) that have made this movie so big.
The moment I saw the film, I felt chills on my spine. I cried coz I saw myself on Mirabel. I was never too good for my family even how hard I try. They always look up on my sister who's the perfect one. This film also reflects our Filipino Culture of living in one roof and having close family ties due to our Spanish influences. Yes, this is the best Disney Film as of yet.
I love what I heard "princess can wear a glasses too" a possibility that Mirabel will be additional to the Disney Princess line up and Raya (Raya And The Last Dragon) Snow White - the abandoned princess Cinderella - the orphan & abused princess Aurora - the cursed princess Ariel - the hybrid princess Belle - the nerd princess Jasmine - the disobedience daughter princess Pocahontas - the earth loving princess Mulan - the androgynous princess Tiana - the workaholic princess Rapunzel - the prisoners princess Merida - the boyish princess Moana - the voyager princess Elsa - the loner queen-princess Anna - the naive princess Raya - the dragon seeker princess Mirabel - the outcast princess
I said it in my review, so I am going to say it again. I couldn’t have asked for a better movie for Walt Disney Animation Studios 60th animated feature.
Mirabel was very very refreshing for me because I've got short hair and glasses I may be white but the glasses and the short hair are very refreshing for me
Yeah I also noticed that she is the ONLY Disney protagonist I know with glasses like me. Seeing her worry about her glasses falling or breaking is all to relatable.
There is also Milo from Atlantis who is wearing glasses. If you don't know this movie I would recommend checking it out. It is a movie that strays from classical Disney patterns and in my opinion a great watch with an amazing fun cast.
She is the first female Disney protagonist with glasses, but the '00s gave us three male Disney protagonists with glasses: Milo from "Atlantis", Chicken Little from "Chicken Little" and Lewis from "Meet the Robinsons".

Probably a toss between Luisa's song, "Surface Pressure", and Bruno's first appearance!
I love the music and dances. my favorite is surface pressure and the details like hernando
Brono song was the best
The songs
This movie was ASS. The worst in the Disney pantheon. The reason for the conflict was stupid. What they need to make the movie better would have been an outsider of the family to help even things out. The only reason this movie has GENERALLY positive reviews, is because of three things: Disney’s long established credibility, animation, and CATCHY music (even so, the music was annoying).
I really appreciated how there was no twist villain, with the closest thing to an antagonist being Abeula. But even then, she's revealed to have understandable motives behind her actions.
Same. 💯👍💯💯👍
If this movie had a villain, it would’ve ruined the movie for me.
@UCM0ren9XZejIvia-mVat8Ag Tbh same
She changed her ways
This is really a colombian movie, since your family is your worst enemy.
This movie is perfect , It doesn't only focus on Mirabel it focuses on the whole family. The best part is that there is no villain or a love interest for Mirabel. It goes into emotional topics , Amazing songs , Voice acting on point , but most of all the animation is beautiful.
Music is sooo beautiful though! 😭
@@Ari2002 honestly out of all the Disney songs encanto has at LEAST top 3 music imo cuz it’s so true like it’s so relatable
@@Ari2002 um yes the best soundtrack did we not watch the same movie
Are you high? Most of what you wrote is the reasons it’s a dumpster fire.
I agree. my only regret it that I didn't see this movie in the theaters with a crowd
And last summer I have fallen in love with the pixar movie Luca and have watched it more time than any other Pixar movie in less than 6 months. Wally and inside out which has been my favorite picture movies since they first came out had been dethroned.
Covid-19 problems aside I think 2021 has been really good for Disney animated films one from Disney animation studio themselves and the other from Pixar
Personally? I think Encanto deserves a series or sequel. There’s a lot of interesting dilemmas that they could’ve explored with the rest of the Madrigals. Expand on Luisa’s pressure and Isabela’s perfection. What if Camilo had an identity crisis? What if Pepa admitted she was feeling crazy stressed from having to constantly maintain her emotions? Dolores feeling like no one ever listens to her when she has to listen to everyone else?
The movie, for what it was, was great. Touched on themes that were super relatable and its songs grew on me. But I think we need a little more.
I agree, I feel like with a series we will be able to further expand with the other madrigals and see how things are now now that their family is whole again
ikr, they should have expanded on pepa's side of the family more,\
This. Maybe this time opening to the outside world and dealing with outsiders since the mountain leading to the river is now open? It would be interesting to see how their powers will be used in times of battle. 😅
Or they can just leave it how it is. With the exception of star wars every time there's a sequel or any other off shoot it degrades the value. I think we need to learn how to be satisfied with a great movie and leave it at.
@@ilovelamp521 That’s not always true. Sequels aren’t always as great as the original but they can enhance the characters and stories. Not every movie needs a sequel, that’s true. But some movies do benefit from one.
Has anybody realized that Pepa's side of the family wears warm tones and Julieta's side of the family cool tones and Abuela Alma and Bruno wear warm and cool tones mixed
And the there's Bruno
I think that helps viewers quickly get a grasp of who's a sister and who's a cousin there
That's fascinating, I never picked it up before, thanks for pointing it out! ❣️
I have noticed that too!! Loved it, helped it notice the family seperately
Mostly I don't pay attention to a Ulead clothes
I’m autistic and as I was leaving the theater I couldn’t believe how perfect an analogy it was for a neurodiverse person growing up in a neurotypical family! I think it was how everyone in her family felt compelled to tell Mirabel how ‘special’ she was, yet they never took her contributions to the family seriously. Even though she was working super hard to help get the casita ready for Antonio’s party everyone was telling her to stay out of the way and let the more ‘capable’ members of the family handle things.
Best of all her superpower ends up being her empathy. I love this because contrary to outdated stereotypes many autistic people have a type of extreme empathy. We often experience the suffering of others so strongly that just being around heightened emotional situations (or even watching it on TV) can be unbearably painful. This extreme empathy is by far the most difficult part of being on the spectrum for me personally. So seeing it portrayed as a literal superpower was a big deal. (Ok. I cried.)
I thought this too
TY! You pull me outta my Jinx/Powder Arcane depression mode :)
I am like both NT and ND...as in I was forced to be the scapegoat who had to force myself to forgive my friendgroups in order to survive the DSM4 'yellow' 'fever' era...like I have numb logic and angry toxic Jinx side
I’m autistic too, and an eldest daughter… I found myself relating to all three of the sisters. Yup. I was a quivering sobbing mess. Lol
@@javascriptsophie4958 What?
"Why is Encanto Disney's Best Movie in Years?" Two things.
1) Lin-Manuel Miranda is fucking awesome at what he does.
2) It's not another shitty live-action remake of a successful animated movie.
Yes! I hope they give him more opportunities to create more hits! Moana and Encanto are hopefully the beginning. I hope he becomes like Alan Menken and they allow Lin to just creatively do more and more because they see what an asset he is!
Wait fifty years, they'll live action this too.
Then you didn't watch Turning Red...
@@peterang6912 I did.
Can’t argue with that
As a Colombian I feel very real this film, and I find more things of reality than fantasy, because its background is based on the reality of many Colombian families who have had to flee their villages, and who have separated and years later reunite, and they find that love and appreciation that despite being separated they always longed for.
I get so emotionally stirred up during the part of "All of You" where Mirabel takes her walk to Casita's door as the family sings. Oh my gosh. The way I love this movie is straight up ridiculous.
That scene is a parallel with the scene in waiting on a miracle when we see the one thing Mirabel wants more than anything else is for her family to support her as we see her dance around the static versions of them with overjoyed expressions cheering her on. That ending scene is very similar in that they are all gathered around her showing their admiration and support
It starts with Luisa looking like she’s about to cry when Mira tells her she’s more than just her gift, her fear when she sings Surface Pressure.
It also bookends nicely with Antonio's ceremony at the beginning of the film. At the beginning of the film, Antonio insists on Mirabel walking him to his door because he is nervous. At the end, Antonio walks Mirabel to the doors of the Casita.
@@marksebree5218 Absolutely!
Ooo Same! I always tear up during that part even though we watch it every day whenever I catch that part I get so emotional 😭
As a Brooklyn born Latino, who is bilingual in English/Spanish - I actually love that both theaters and streaming services NOW make these Latino theme animation movies available to watch in both English/Spanish for our children, grandchildren and the whole Family.
As Latinos, we are aware that each group is extremely PROUD of their own unique history, food, accent & customs - but when it comes to Family values & heritage we are all quite similar. We didn’t have Latino theme animation movies, when I was growing up - so
1) I love that we can experience the movie as a family
2) we can educate non-Latinos about the various PROUD cultures that makeup the diverse Latino Community in & outside of the USA 👏
What is the Spanish dub like? I speak Japanese (not fluent) and want to watch it so bad in Japanese.
@@heartroll8719 - Here is some TRIVIA: American movies have been dubbed into other foreign languages, since the beginning of cinema. As such, the standard Spaniard Castellano accent is what was often used.
However, today the industry is sensitive to using the proper Spanish accent associated with the group being represented in the film, so:
- “Encanto” will be dubbed with a Colombian Spanish accent
- “Coco” will be dubbed with a Mexican Spanish accent.
The Soundtrack songs are also translated
You can also wait to see when the movie is release for rental or purchase, to see if it’s available in your prefer language of Chinese. I only purchase movies that are also dubbed in Spanish so I can enjoy the experience with my friends & family that are only Spanish speakers. I watched “In the Heights” on HBOMAX the first time in English and the 2nd time in Spanish. It was great on both viewings.
NETFLIX is great at offering Foreign movies in multiple languages like the popular “Squid Game” is
available in Audio dubbed: German, English, Spanish, French, Korean
Subtitles are available in: Chinese, English, Korean
I watch a lot of Foreign Language films and I don’t mind reading subtitles at the theater. However, if I’m at home and the Foreign Film is not available in English, I will select the Spanish, French, Italian or Portuguese dubbed version with English Subtitles. I’ve been translating Spanish, French, Italian and Portuguese documents into English for over 30+ years and have visited for work many of these countries, especially the Spanish speaking ones and after a 4 month assignment, of course, I immediately adapt to their accent, so I do not standout.
@@ask4theupgrade359 I can’t understand Chinese. I actually have watched Squid Game in Japanese and honestly, they did a pretty good job.
@@ask4theupgrade359 Encanto was dubbed into Japanese same as the songs
You love the word "Latino" and ask yourself why. It is a word that has no meaning to the people who's races are from North Central and South America. What are you?
I am American, my family is Mexican. None of us call ourselves "Latino" because it has zero value, no meaning, and was created by "white" people to categorize indigenous people.
I’ve read the article on how Mirabel’s struggles relates to people on the autism spectrum & speaking as an ASD person, I’ve never noticed that until I read the article & started putting two & two together😄💙
Interesting.
Yes! As an autistic person, the scene where Mirabel's like "I'll never be good enough for you" was hard to watch. And the whole "waiting for a miracle" number too.
I'd say "Surface Pressure" is a pretty relatable song as well. I often feel in my workplace that, as a disabled person being accommodated, I have to "prove" that I deserve my place and I have to work even harder than most people to be accepted.
I’m on the autism spectrum too. She is so relatable; I always find it hard to relate to others.
I’m also autistic. As I was leaving the theater I couldn’t believe how perfect an analogy it was for a neurodiverse person growing up in a neurotypical family! I think it was how everyone in her family felt compelled to tell Mirabel how ‘special’ she was, yet they never took her contributions to the family seriously.

@Sebby I can relate to Bruno that way because of his awkwardness and my autism. The line that broke my heart during the movie “Yeah, my gift wasn’t helping the family but I love my family.”
One little detail that I liked was that Isabella, the one who is considered the most beautiful, has the darkest skin tone amongst the females. The pretty ones in fairy tales are usually blond and white and Isabella is fresh change.
Love this note!
I love this too!!
She's with Dolores in being the darkest of females
I also love they don’t shy away from her indigenous features. It’s so beautiful.
can we stop with this twilight zone bs? first, many "Disney" princesses aren't from Disney whatsoever and are old tales from Europe, kinda hard having them anything different than European looking princesses
second, as if there was no Pocahontas, Frog, Moana, Yasmin, Mulan and the list goes on
just stop with this notion that it's something so outta this world because it just isn't
I support original stories like encanto a 100%, it is even kinda my new favorite Disney movie but we have to stop as if those stories aren't told,if you would care to look you would find an abundance
My sons and I love this movie so much! My oldest is 8 and is autistic. He will not stop playing this movie. I just love seeing how much joy it brings him. It melts my heart. We sing “We Don’t Talk About Bruno” all together as a family every single time and still haven’t grown tired of it. Such a beautifully layered story with great characters, gorgeous animation and fun bops! A favorite hands down. ❤️✨
This makes me so happy 😁
I have an almost 8 year old mostly nonverbal autistic son (he can only say a few words and has problems with pronunciation) and he loves this movie even more than my 5 year old daughter loves it.
He tries to sing all the songs and mimics Luisas dance and asks to watch the music videos on TH-cam (surface pressure is his favorite song)
It is so amazing Disney is my special interest and I’ve had encanto on repeat too Im so glad you enjoy his enjoyment it’s amazing seeing parents support their kids interests
@@sarahosuna9082 🥰✨
@@Norumi0chan Aww, that is so cute that he mimics her dancing! Isn’t the best feeling when you see your child so happy? There really is something so special about Encanto. 💕✨
My favorite things about Encanto: 1. There is a more diverse range of bodies; especially for the female characters. Luisa and Mirabel aren't the typical skinny Disney princess figure which I really appreciate. 2. There isn't a typical villain; though Abuela is the main protagonist, the solution to the conflict comes when we come to understand her and why she acted the way she did. We have sympathy for her and can relate to her, which is a powerful message. 3. All the characters are flawed, which is not very common for Disney movies of the past, but really, really adds to the quality and realism of the story. Honestly this movie beats Frozen for me which is a big deal!
Lion king is my favorite ever, im an old school and not a fan of modern disney movies , but this movie with amazing animation, beautiful music, great and relatable characters, dance scenes, family values, humor… is my favorite disney movie in years. Not to mention it made me wanna learn spanish and visit Colombia ❤️
You are very welcome 🇨🇴🇨🇴🇨🇴
@@ClauMaldonadoJuliao need to learn more spanish, overcome my fear of flying and then im there 🤣👍

@@MANZANOADRIAN well, i saw it on one popular tv show 😉, and it looks beautiful 👍
Spanish is a pretty easy language, so I do recommend it and enjoy!
I love this movie. In this dark time of winter and pandemic, this movie brings colors, catchy songs, lovable characters, fun and joy
It absolutely amazes that a movie can resonate with so many people and can be seen in so many positive prospectives. This is one of those movies in a very long time where I was having fun every step of the way. Props to Disney and the film makers.
💯💯💯👍👍👍. I love this film fkr the same reasons as u do
For me Encanto is a story about family problems without any villain. It's related to real life, the pressure as older sibling, being hope for family, and a lot hardships among family members. Encanto apparantly conclude almost all issues without any complicated storyline. + Colombian cultures make it more colourful and I like it 💖 They deserve as Movie of the Year 💖💖💖
It's honestly my favourite disney film tbh. The message resonates deeply with me.
Me too, I love how it centres all around the family, and them trying to overcome their past trauma.
Same here!
that when you get power you should never give it up?
@mrd456 😶
Same!
Mirabel is literally me! I have curly hair, round glasses and a nose like hers! It means so much to me…
Congratulations on being in a Disney movie
I know someone who looks exactly like her actually, is Latina, and has the same way of moving, like to the point I can’t even take mirabel seriously 😂
Besides the catchy songs, I love that there was no villain. Plus, the main character is fantastic
Encanto is by far one of my favourite Disney films. It doesn’t follow traditional trends and patterns. There was no plot twist villian, which makes a difference in my opinion. They initially make it out to be Bruno, I personally got a lot of Scar (from the Lion King) vibes, but we find out he’s got a heart of gold and was trying to protect Mirabel and the family despite him being rejected. I wouldn’t say Abuela is a villain, more an antagonist as she is (sort of) against Mirabel throughout much of the film. Her actions are understandable, and there isn’t necessarily any malice intended towards Mirabel. She just wants the best for her family who she cares about massively, as well as wanting to give back to the community but didn’t realise until the end of the film that she was expecting too much of her family, apologised to Mirabel for letting her down, and said she would change her ways. This film is perfect in so many ways. It’s set in a beautiful location, it’s colourful and the music is the best since Moana. Most importantly, it teaches us that no matter what, your family will always be there
I don't consider it Disney's best. I consider it one of the best movies ever made.
I knew from the start that I was either going to LOVE or HATE this.. I am from the English-speaking Caribbean and spent 6 weeks in Colombia in uni for Spanish and I consider Colombia home. I was already in love with Carlos Vives and Sebastian Yatra. Colombia mi Encanto makes me want to get on a plane or at least pull out the aguardiente. Dos oruguitas though... I have seen the movie 11 times and that song pulled my soul apart and leaves me bawling every single time.
As for representation, I expected my Colombian side to identify, but I was amazed to find a bunch of other little non-mainstream things that I share with the characters as an Afro-Caribeña. Like when Mirabel points at Antonio's present with her mouth or when Camilo does the finger-click in Antonio's room. These are everyday things for me and I don't think I have ever seen them on screen outside of my culture. Made me think that the Caribbean and Latin America are closer than we think.
I also really love that Disney decided to keep Dos Oruguitas and Colombia mi Encanto in Spanish. English-speakers are notoriously unreceptive to other languages. So I am glad the choice paid off and everyone loves the song and it is already nominated for an award. I am glad they went for an all Latinx cast for the English too, and all Colombian for the Spanish. (Although that might be backlash from Raya.) Itfeels autentic to have some of the characters have a little accent. I love the decision not to dub in Castilian Spanish. For once, we get to tell our own story on the world's biggest stage.
All that said, I think that what makes Encanto great overall is how open it is to multiple interpretations. Frozen changed the game, but we were told (and it was obvious) that love was the answer. Encanto wrapped up two months ago and we are still all in different campa about whether Mirabel has a gift, whether she IS the Gift, where the miracle came from, whether Abuelo Pedro Is the House ....
Encanto is a masterpiece.
❤️❤️❤️... Or as Colombians say: 💛💛💙❤️ (I moved Colombia up my bucket list like 50 steps, to FIRST)
extremely well written and thought-out!
Come baaaaack. ;)
PS my own interpretation is one you listed: Mirabel IS the gift, and Abuelo is the House :)
I'm 59 years old and have been watching Disney Animated Features since I saw 'The Jungle Book' in theaters in 1967. Suffered through the hit and miss years of 'The Artistocats,' 'Robin Hood,' 'The Rescuers,' 'The Fox and the Hound,' 'The Black Cauldron,' 'The Great Mouse Detective' and 'Oliver & Co.,' before Disney had a major comeback with 'The Little Mermaid' moving them into the limelight again. 'Encanto' has become one of my all time favorites - potentially in my Top Three. It's so good. And I'm not sure why it's not getting more buzz, more viewers and better box office numbers.
I love how a gift can easily feel like a curse:
Bruno: Can become paranoid about things he can see but not control
Pepa: Must always suppress her emotions
Antonio: When the animals have to eat each other and run away to survive, they end up dragging Antonio into their conflict. Antonio has to choose between predator and prey. Whoever he chooses, someone will hold a grudge.
Dolores: Has to keep every secret a secret.
Camilo: Has to entertain everyone
Julita: idk right now
Julieta is very busy with trying to keep the others happy and making all that food and handing it out.
She is probably close to being as overworked as Luisa (or she would have been if she hadn't been nearly perfect).
I admit it, Encanto is my favorite Disney movie ever. I kinda watched each movie Disney released.
Encanto brings something new, it touches so many true issues in life, it shows realistic conflicts, Disney wasn't afraid this time to open up. This movie is so mature, it's not only for the kids audience but especially to the grown up too. This movie would make you laugh, cry, identify and relate to one or more of the characters. The songs there are Beautiful and addictive as well, in short this movie is a masterpiece.
It’s settled, Encanto is definitely a mAster piece!
Every element just came together perfectly to deliver a beautiful family message while exploring a different narrative and cultural context.
Just impeccable!
I know that Encanto win the Oscar for The Best Animated film of 2022. I fell in love with Encanto at first sight! 💖 Hopefully, that will encourage Disney to officially make Mirabel the 13th princess. 👸🏽🌈🏡✨
I think it’s great because every character is either likeable or understandable. Also every character seems to have their own fan base even for the characters who don’t have that much screentime such as felix or camilo
As someone with glasses I love that mirabel has glasses. It's something I never paid much attention to before but it's def nice to see. I like how they didn't make it apart of her personality either, she's just a girl with glasses
As an autistic myself, I definitely relate to Mirabel. I also relate to Luisa and putting up that strong front when I should be more vulnerable. Also Delores and the insanity of too much audible input and how that can be overwhelming sometimes. It’s such a relatable movie with an amazing soundtrack! I can’t stop watching, can’t stop listening!!! Truly the best movie Disney has done in years and also Lin’s best soundtrack to date for sure!!!
There’s so many autistic headcanons in Disney it’s amazing
What's really nice about Luisa is just because she has a gift of duper strength meant she didnt need to work out so disney couldve made the lazy choice to leave it, but they gave her large muscles aswell : )
The creators of encanto had to fight with Disney executives to keep Luisas muscular figure.
On reflection, I think the gifts aren't random. Casita bestows gifts that amplify traits that the recipient already had. Antonio already loved animals before he gained the ability to understand them. Isabela was probably always goin to be a bit of a prima donna. Luisa was going to be a physically strong young woman anyway. Pepa is tempestuous. Julieta is nurturing. Camilo in indecisive. Dolores is in everyone's business. Bruno can see some of where things are going.
If any movie deserves a series it's Encanto
Amen to that!
well its getting one, rejoice
@@ZoTrend source
trust me bro
@@moon7shinev150 CEO of Disney said it himself
It's definitely in the top 10! I love that Disney is moving away from the good and evil trope. The songs are top tier and memorable, they have been stuck in my head for weeks. And the fact that they are one on charts prove that to be true. And pressure from family members is very relatable. I don't understand the hate, but not everything is for everybody I guess.
I'm glad Encanto has an abstract antagonist, it helps it deal with and explore its heavier themes more directly than telling your usual conflict between two people
Even these tiny clips make me tear up "Our family is broken...because of me" "I owe this all to you!" 😭
The film's perfection stems from exploring imperfection. It is by no means a perfect film but it is this imperfection which captures the hearts of many.
I'm still struggling to say this, but Encanto may be the best Disney movie since the Lion King (not the 2019 crap. The real one) because it's so human and relatable with great songs and wonderful, 3-dimentional characters and chemistry
You are not alone because I was thinking the exact same thing! And I haven't been able to say that about a Disney movie and a very long time
@@laurawithers5152 right? Tangled, Lilio & Stirch, Mulan Treasure Planet and more are great and classics but Lion King is definitely S+++ tier. If Encanto doesn't succeed it, it's definitely only 0.01% lower tier
@@rndmpinkiepie64 and also the sequel which is super underrated is amazing!!! Because what I really love about The Lion King movies is literally they are based off of Shakespeare the first one is based off of Hamlet and the second one is based off of Romeo and Juliet. And if I'm going to be honest I may be at a lonely table for one but I didn't fully understand all the hype that Frozen got but I 100% understand why Encato is getting all the hype plus lin-manuel Miranda is amazing
@@laurawithers5152 Frozen was good but movies like Tangled and Treasure Planet are way better and Lion King 2 was a good sequel, I totally agree (I also like Mulan 2) but the original was definitely a classic and a masterpiece and they translated the Shakespeare stories so well. It was amazing
And after seeing Encanto, I want to see Miranda's other works. It didn't surprise me when I learned he did/helped on Moana's You're Welcome
I’m cool with that. You spoke out your opinion and I can agree with that
Until this film came out, Moana was the last Disney film that I liked. The three films that came out during the last 5 years were either mediocre or terrible. But Encanto is such a special film, it’s rich in heart, emotion and creativity.
mediocre in YOUR opinion
@@fupamaster378 obviously
Moana and Encanto are my favs too ❤️
That's the magic of Lin Manuel Miranda for you. He is doing a perfect job on every project: from Hamilton to Moana and Encanto
Are we talking only about Disney animated films under the umbrella of the parent company or Disney film in general, because Marvel, Star Wars, and Pixar's are fall under the category of Disney? Pixar has Coco and Soul, two of the best Disney/Pixar animated in the last five years. Marvel you know has infinity wars and endgame and Star Wars has Star Wars
304: Can Encanto be the first Disney movie to have siblings singing their own songs?

Isabella -What Else Can I Do
Mirabel -Waiting On A Miracle
No because in Frozen and Frozen 2 Elsa and Anna have their own songs.

@@IzzyQueen12 yes she did. Do You Wanna Build A Snowman (mostly her) and For The First Time in Forever....

I think that Encanto is one of the best movies here. People really do connect to it and all of that, not just kids but adult’s too because no matter where you came from everyone has a story. That they share to their friends or family, or the same with the people who watches this magical movie with good songs!!!!
I'm literally obsessed with this film!! I watched it recently and since then, I haven't stopped watching every content related to it and listening to the music in TH-cam & Spotify! ✨
This movie was such a great movie and loved each character specialty Bruno since I can relate to him since I consider myself the family werido or black sheep of the family I really want to to see more of the family whether it's in a series or a movie We don't talk about bruno was such a bop
This movie is definitely tied with Luca as my favorite Disney movie of 2021!
Oh, I agree
As a person who doesn't typically like Disney films (there are only 2 others that I enjoy), I can attest to the fact that this film is just...spectacular! The only thing that I dislike about the film is that Camilo and Dolores didn't have their own songs lol. As far as soundtracks go, this is my second favorite movie soundtrack of all time, which is saying a lot.
What purpose would those songs serve? All the songs in the movie are integral to the plot and storyline.
Okay, Bruno unintentionally mocking Let It Go when We Don't Talk About Bruno overtook Let It Go in the charts is freaking hilarious.
And when anyone asks what Gift I'd want from the family, I'd say Camilo's shapeshifting gift.
literally my thought lmaooo
Even if there’s no actual villain that hates the Madrigals or has a petty grudge against them Alma is somewhat of an antagonist but also a tragic anti hero since she went through a lot losing her husband and having to leave her village but instead of coming to terms with his passing she took out all of her grief on the rest of her family and turned into a perfectionist expecting them to use their powers to help their community while that was a good thing it ultimately burdened them all with frustration and pressure especially Luisa it only took her argument with Mirabel to convince her to change her ways.
A heroine with glasses and curly hair! And Luisa representing a strong woman! I love the movie. The representation of how big families in Hispanic countries that live together ❤️
There’s something so different about encanto that makes it so special, the concept is unique but yet it feels like something that can be a common idea too
and i love how they execte the “villain”. People trying to tell you bruno’s the bad one, when it’s really Albula who is the “bad one”, but actually There being no actual villian, Albula really just in distress.
And just how much each family member truly love each other. At first it looks like a normal relationship but then it slowly falls apart, be even while falling apart they still do love each other, just going through a phase. But in the end they make up.
You can tell how abuela wanted Isabella to be perfect when she took the white flower out of her hair
As a Filipino who has a family struggle of having to have to do something special or having to get a great job it's been hard to communicate with my family especially when my grandparents actually expect alot from us going as far as casting out anyone who has a love interest before finishing collage or even as a fully grown adult dating someone they don't like/think is capable enough to be part of the family(said thing happened to my sister and at some point at my mom). There's also the fact that they are likely to interact with you if you have some sort of talent/focus like:playing a instrument,heavily dedicated to church,a top student. I even had to repeat a grade because I didn't get to the top 3 but-
My point is Encanto has touched my heart where I just feel..seen in a way.
I wish they could just let me do art and accept the change of life and slowly adjust away from the old fashioned way although I can't blame them either. My grandparents living long enough to experience war and had to deal with alot of financial problems in the past so now that they have a more middle class life they're really holding tight on it.
I love Enchanto for being all about Family. With being stressed and pressure from elders. Love this movie especially all the tracks.
Best since Frozen. I love Zootopia and Moana, but there’s just something about this movie that hits all the right notes.
I've watched it 4 times so far and love it more each time. A couple of revelations as I watched this video:
1. The "tick tick tick" in Surface Pressure" could be a nod to the other film Lin-Manuel was working on during this time: Tick Tick Boom!
2. Wouldn't Mirabel's mom's power heal her eyesight?
I had never thought of Mirabel’s story being similar to that of someone with autism. I have autism and now that you mentioned it, I can see myself in Mirabel and her struggle to be accepted by her family and community. Especially her relationship with her grandmother. We never told my grandmother that I had be diagnosed with autism because we knew she wouldn’t have understood or accepted it (or me).
Encanto is one of the best disney movies of all time.
not only encanto there more best disney movies
Definitely
It's my favorite movie of all time
Sure is the greatest. I'm kinda disappointed that it bombed at the box office when it came out.
It's second on my list of favorite movies,nothing can beat one movie that i loved ever since i was a child.
*Finding Nemo*
i love how disney always remind us that although we are reaching for the star, in the end all that matter is we are living the life we have and family is the most important thing in life.
This movie is in my opinion the best Disney Animation I have ever seen. Last time I was so obsessed with a Disney movie was the Lion King. But back then I was a kid and it was easy to get excited. Now I am 30 years old and getting this level of joy out of a movie is very rare.
I can't stop watching this movie.it's litterally perfect!
Same.
You had me at “can’t stop watching this movie”
Because it’s one of the few good ones that’s been made in the last 6 years that isn’t a sequel, a live action remake, or a Pixar movie.
I hope this gets a series.
the writers and director say its VERY LIKELY
@@gillian_perry I am very pleased to hear that
Ikr I hope so too🙏
Yeah- If tangled got a series then Encanto definetly deserves to get one (no hate to tangled I love it too)
At least an episode for each character where we see their rooms and explore them a bit more, like shorts. I’d be fine with that 👌🏻
I love this movie because I relate differently to a few characters. I've always felt pressured to be perfect, always like I have to carry everything, and feel like I don't fit in to either side of my family. Lately most my family members say I'm not Mexican enough because I don't like some Mexican things. They say I'm whitewashed because of my white fiance.
I love the movie! And although all except Mirabel have a special gift, I still think Mirabel is as special as everyone is around the world, no matter how many times people think they’re not.
So happy they proceeded to allow Luisa to have her body type. My son LOVES Luisa! And I know so many little kids of all genders that love her too. Showing such diverse characters is what makes this movie so amazing.
I remember watching it the first time in theaters and not liking it. I didn’t appreciate it until it came out on Disney + and now every time I watch it I cry. I’m considered the Bruno of my family and I relate to his character so much.
My nephew and niece also have this movie on repeat and absolutely love Luisa. They try to prove to me how strong they are and it’s so heart warming. Such a great movie
The lines of isabella in we don't talk about bruno and the fact how much of a jerk she was for most of the movie really made me belive she whould be a twist villain. Imagin my suprise when it turned out she wasn't.
I love how catchy this song is but Isabella’s solo seemed a bit unnecessary to me. Reminded me of a spoiled brat, Veruca Slat
@@olvialee7221 I Think you mean veruca slat from wolly wonka
@@bahesb2419 Yeah. U know what I mean
I agree- I thought the ‘hug’ would be the last chance to stop her from becoming a villain
@@olvialee7221 Isabella’s solo is a foreshadowing. Everyone is singing about the worst fears Bruno confirmed - and she was singing out her worst fears being confirmed but had to still do it perfectly as demanded.
Encanto was perfection. If they ever make an Encanto 2, I’d be in line going to see it. I also loved that it focused on the whole Madrigal family, not just Mirabel or the siblings. The sister rivalry between Isabela and Mirabel also shows things that go on in everyday households. The songs are catchy, but the storyline isn’t perfect, although Encanto is amazing.
I saw this movie the other day on Disney+ and I LOVED it. And the song, ‘We Don’t Talk About Bruno’, I love singing it around the house because like other Disney songs, it’s SO catchy.😊
Encanto should be a Broadway musical 🎶
It's only a matter of time!
My first thought on watching Encanto was a snide ”wow, they made a movie specifically so they can sell the musical afterwards”
Don’t get me wrong, I love Encanto now, but it took three rewatches to get past the gaudy music theatre surface
Wouldn’t surprise me. LMM has had at least two very successful plays, one of which (In The Heights) I saw on Broadway
It honestly is Disney's best movie in Years in my opinion. I love this movie so much.
Ya it my favorite movie 🙂
One of the best disney movie
@@PrinceRahman576 yes the best Disney movie
It always gives me chills when Isabela and Maribel hug and the candle shined brighter and cracks disappearing.
Even though I am Mexican American I look at Mirabel and see myself with curly hair and with glasses and her personality as well
What made this the best is because all the major character involve in each part and all the characters are important in every decision
I love everything in Encanto. Beauty and the Beast is still my number one and now, this is my new favorite
If I’m being honest Encanto has some of the greatest songs ever in a Disney movie. Maybe cause it’s more modern and uses more modern sounding instruments in order to sound better but the songs definitely surpass any other Disney songs I’ve heard.
Miranda is a genius and accompanied by the unique Colombian characteristic rhythms, the singers were perfect... the soundtrack is flawless.
This movie couldn’t have come out at a better time for me! I just spent 3 years of intense fighting with my family trying to address the hidden issues no one else wanted to see. After over 30 years of depression, suicide attempts, violent anxiety attacks, and misunderstood ADHD symptoms, I finally got my opportunity to put my foot down 3 years ago. I spent those 3 years fighting with my family who had been convinced that I was developmentally slow, incapable, spoiled and selfish. It took allowing my stepmom to come to my therapy sessions and informing her that none of that is correct and no one has actually listened to the truth; and then letting her (a more respected member of the family) mediate on my behalf to force my stubborn ass family to listen for once! All of that to get the chance to contribute to family dinner conversation on equal terms with my siblings! Equal! With light banter and teasing! That’s all I wanted! To actually be seen as a part of the family and not the family’s burden! So when I saw Encanto, I felt like I had just lived that! I could see myself in each of the characters. I’ve seen it multiple times now and I still can’t get enough!
Imo, Encanto def a new fresh of air amongst Disney’s movies! With the story centered around them and only them! And doesn’t need to like….adventure….and the Visual and Animation….magical!
I was literally just talking to my mom about how this is the first Disney/ Pixar musical I've liked in years! I wasn't a fan of Frozen except for a few songs and I wasn't even a huge fan of Moana tbh. for me its the music thats the main reason why I love it. there were some loose ends that they maybe will finish in a sequel but that was my only complaint. the animation was great, it could've been better like Toy Story 4, but it was still well done and the dancing was very realistic.
Toy Story 4 is better to you????? 🤣 they ruin all the characters in Toy story 4 for a new Fork character 🤣
@@micahbell7840 I’m referring to the animation of toy story 4 which was spectacular.
@@Kaice88 oh. Ok 👌
Anyone notice all the butterflies in mirabel’s attire? It signifies change in the family. The evolution from the old beliefs to the new. She’s developing into the new matriarchy.
I loved this movie!! I would've been so happy as a child to see someone with glasses in Disney! I hope many more positive messaged movies come out!!
maybe another reason encanto it's the best is because it's a second Hispanic movie first being coco which came out in 2017 after that no other Hispanic movie came
I love how every family member plays a role in solving the mystery of the breaking magic... and how relatable each character is in their own way. Bruno finally reuniting with his family made me want to sob like a small child. 🥺 The Madrigals are all just so... 😭🥰
His cracks weren't as apparent as the rest of the family, but he still played comforter to his mother when she was panicking, babysitter, family greeter, and fit the family's "entertainer" role. Camilo's family pressures weren't as obvious, but he still gave us pieces of the puzzle that this Perfect Family was breaking under the pressure. Plus he provided some great exposition (if incredibly inaccurate) about why we don't talk about Bruno. 😂
@@VidDuality That's why Disney needs to do a sequel or a series and go more in depth with each character. Everyone loves Camilo, Bruno and Dolores the most from what I keep seeing and yet they had so little screentime. Show us their rooms(not talking about Bruno since we've seen his). Show us their issues with dealing with their gifts. Have Camilo and Dolores have their own songs. Have Mirabel interact a whole lot more with her cousins(besides Antonio because he was the most interaction with her). Everyone is saying that her and Camilo should have been the closest since they are the same age even though he is older by a few months. So show us that Disney. That's what everyone is saying and I agree. There's so much that Disney can do to expand on this movie. So hopefully we will see something come out of it.
I didn’t think that Mirabel would relate to the autism community, and I’m autistic. That’s amazing, though, because I never would have thought of it!
Yeah she’s so awesome she’s definitely a headcanon autistic charecter (Disney has so many which is great)
In short, Encanto deserves an Oscar....
As the middle child I related to Luisa so much. As the one who moved back home to take care of my mother and has to work so hard to do everything Isabela and Luisa felt very close to me. I have such pressure to make everything look and seem under control.
Absolutely love this film. But Soul really gets me in the feels every time, so underrated
I understand but don’t get me started with my mom
i actually almost cried during soul-
Best movie I have seen in a long time! The perfect synchronized theme, lyrics, instruments and message makes this the best of the year. Each scene has incredible connection with the audience and makes you remember it forever!
To say I agree is a complete understatement. I’m 23 and I would list Encanto as one of my favorite Disney movies ever. It’s truly one of the best. The music, the aesthetic, the animation, the acting and the visuals are truly incredible.
Absolutely
I like that Bruno makes his first appearance during his song: he is creeping around on the upper walkway during Dolores' contribution. You can even see him rocking out to her lyrics.
Another reason why Encanto is Disney's best movie yet,
Just watching this video and listening to the songs made me remember the scenes and because of that, made me cry 😭
Encanto deserves an oscar I love the representation in this movie and the music and animations! It's one of my favorite Disney movies!
RIGHT likee it legit took the entire world by STORM especially with their songs like surface pressure and we don’t talk about bruno. lin manuel miranda made these songs such BOPS likeee they slap so harddd. plus i think the amount of diversity from this story being placed in columbia and people fighting to have luisa have a more muscular body type plays a huge part in this movie being so big and good. not to mention this movie also has not only an audience that mainly consists of children but it also has TONS and TONS of teenagers and adults (mainly teens ofc) that have made this movie so big.
The moment I saw the film, I felt chills on my spine. I cried coz I saw myself on Mirabel. I was never too good for my family even how hard I try. They always look up on my sister who's the perfect one. This film also reflects our Filipino Culture of living in one roof and having close family ties due to our Spanish influences. Yes, this is the best Disney Film as of yet.
I love what I heard "princess can wear a glasses too"
a possibility that Mirabel will be additional to the Disney Princess line up and Raya (Raya And The Last Dragon)
Snow White - the abandoned princess
Cinderella - the orphan & abused princess
Aurora - the cursed princess
Ariel - the hybrid princess
Belle - the nerd princess
Jasmine - the disobedience daughter princess
Pocahontas - the earth loving princess
Mulan - the androgynous princess
Tiana - the workaholic princess
Rapunzel - the prisoners princess
Merida - the boyish princess
Moana - the voyager princess
Elsa - the loner queen-princess
Anna - the naive princess
Raya - the dragon seeker princess
Mirabel - the outcast princess
I like it
“You’re The REAL GIFT, Kid. Let Us In.”
- Bruno Madrigal, 2021 Movie
I said it in my review, so I am going to say it again. I couldn’t have asked for a better movie for Walt Disney Animation Studios 60th animated feature.
Mirabel was very very refreshing for me because I've got short hair and glasses I may be white but the glasses and the short hair are very refreshing for me
It deserves a sequel or series.
Yeah I also noticed that she is the ONLY Disney protagonist I know with glasses like me. Seeing her worry about her glasses falling or breaking is all to relatable.
There is also Milo from Atlantis who is wearing glasses. If you don't know this movie I would recommend checking it out.
It is a movie that strays from classical Disney patterns and in my opinion a great watch with an amazing fun cast.
@@pleasemeowback lol forgot about him.
She is the first female Disney protagonist with glasses, but the '00s gave us three male Disney protagonists with glasses:
Milo from "Atlantis", Chicken Little from "Chicken Little" and Lewis from "Meet the Robinsons".
Truly the best movie Disney has created in years!!!!
